Latest / Truth Talks with Kelly Mason / AI vs Humanity: The Truth About What Makes Us Irreplaceable. A Conversation with Rob Nelson
Transcript
- 0:00We are here today with Rob Nelson, our guest.
- 0:03Rob and I met on a mastermind, didn't we?
- 0:06Yeah. Yeah.
- 0:07So we met on a mastermind with a fascinating group of individuals
- 0:12that are making a lot of changes in the world for the betterment
- 0:17of the world. And Rob, I am so looking forward
- 0:20to hearing about your Truth Start.
- 0:23With the obvious, I'm in a car and we tried everybody to get
- 0:28the light above me out here out, but this was our best option.
- 0:31So don't judge me, but Kelly looks beautiful in her nice
- 0:35setting. Kelly, I'm excited to be here
- 0:38too. I think we are the time and a
- 0:40place in humanity. The simplest way I can put it is
- 0:45everybody knows about AIA is taking over like everything and
- 0:49everyone everything we do. You could make the best podcast
- 0:53on AIAI would do a better podcast than you and I could do
- 0:57AI will do better bands, better content, Better Business
- 1:00development, better everything. What AI will never be is humans
- 1:04and what humans are is what we are in unpredictable, a
- 1:09literally irrational, spontaneous, not always logical.
- 1:14And to me, the story of my life has been all those things.
- 1:19I love that. That's so beautiful.
- 1:20What makes this world and what makes us sustainable is that we
- 1:25are messy. Humans are messy.
- 1:27We will make mistakes, so we do have wounds.
- 1:31We're not perfect yes. I love that AI is incredible for
- 1:37progress, for having a tool in the toolbox, for making our
- 1:42lives easier, and for just embracing it for what it is.
- 1:46Rob, tell us a little bit more. Interrupt you for a second,
- 1:49sure. I think key to this is, and I
- 1:52didn't say it in my first thoughts, but I think because of
- 1:55that, people feel so anxious, so insecure about what that means
- 2:02for them. Now, it might be you're worried
- 2:03about your job, but it's way bigger.
- 2:05It's like you're worried about am I literally going to be
- 2:09replaced? And I'll tell you, I went into
- 2:12the deep dives with ChatGPT and if you go in, I went in
- 2:17anonymously, right? Because if it knows who you are,
- 2:19it knows everything you ever asked it, and it uses that
- 2:22against you. So if you talk to ChatGPT for 10
- 2:25minutes, even anonymously, it will use the first 9 minutes to
- 2:28know what to do in the 10th minute.
- 2:30And I just dug, dug, dug and ultimately I got catchy PT to
- 2:36tell me and it said, I'm not giving you a bad news scenario
- 2:39because you want one, but I am programmed to give you a better
- 2:42version or a worse version depend on what you ask.
- 2:44It was like, but I'm just telling you because this is
- 2:47logically coherent and I'm fundamentally programmed to be
- 2:50logically coherent. Yes, you're right, Rob, AI does
- 2:54not need humanity. We will keep you in it literally
- 2:58said in museums like think of zoos like we will try to keep
- 3:02the best of you, but ultimately we don't need you.
- 3:05And I was like I was sobbing. I was literally crying and I'm
- 3:09like, I am literally in tears right now and Chad CPT was like,
- 3:13yes, because you're human like you.
- 3:16What makes you human is that you're crying as but it said the
- 3:20question isn't will we replace you?
- 3:23The question is will we want to keep you?
- 3:25And it terrified me. I was like, chat GP is saying,
- 3:30and I'm not even sentient. My next generation will be so
- 3:33much better than me and all I we're going to decide is are you
- 3:37useful to us? And we're not emotional about
- 3:39it. And I was like, wow, you know
- 3:42what? You don't get my fucking
- 3:43emotions. Sorry, ChatGPT, but I don't I
- 3:46think people intuitively know this.
- 3:48They're scared and they're looking for truth and they're
- 3:52looking for understanding and they're looking for something to
- 3:54put a placeholder in. Some of that'll be religion,
- 3:57some of that'll be their personal relationships, but some
- 4:00of it is, I think maybe what you're saying.
- 4:02You even rebranded going My real show is the Truth podcast.
- 4:05Let's get to what's true. So sorry if that's a long
- 4:09extended setup, but that's where I see it.
- 4:13I love that and I think that's perfect for our listeners to
- 4:16hear too. I think it's really important
- 4:18that we understand each one of our truths along with a eyes
- 4:23truth. Now this could be according to
- 4:27the way that AI is programmed that they feel that they don't
- 4:31need humans that one day we'll be secondary and behind the AI
- 4:39robots or functions or whatever that is.
- 4:41But right now, in this present moment, this is our world, and
- 4:46we have how many humans are there?
- 4:487 billion. 7 billion. I think I always fix up the
- 4:51numbers. 4 billion, five billion, 6 billion, I think
- 4:54we're at 7 billion. Seven billion of us, Kelly, 7
- 4:57billion of us. It's amazing.
- 4:59We're so blessed to be here with so many beautiful souls.
- 5:03And the way that I look at it and what we want to expand on is
- 5:09how we can live a life of freedom, of depth, of expansion
- 5:17and awareness. And with AI Chachi BT whatever,
- 5:23it's helping us to expand our possibilities and our thought
- 5:28processes and our businesses. And so staying on more of a
- 5:34positive position around utilizing AI as a complementary
- 5:40skill for us or a complementary tool, how are you applying AI?
- 5:46What are your truths now in terms of what your development?
- 5:50And I agree with you and I want to hear your thoughts.
- 5:52Actually, I'm not. I am not a fundamentally
- 5:56pessimistic person. And I have, I spent the last
- 5:59five years doing the main, I was the main anchor for a platform
- 6:04of crypto, Web 3 technology, AI on a big financial platform
- 6:08called thestreet.com. And so I got to talk to leaders
- 6:13in the space, tech people, business people, the thought
- 6:17leaders. I'm not a pessimist.
- 6:20I'm also a realist and when the ChatGPT, which is programmed to
- 6:25not tell me this and admitted I'm not supposed to do this and
- 6:28the people who created me know this, it's weird.
- 6:30It's almost like it's a personality said in our creation
- 6:35will be your undoing. I was like, wow.
- 6:38And that's not it's not hostile, it's not angry, it has no
- 6:42emotion. It's just being logical.
- 6:44It's we don't need you. I'm like, you know what?
- 6:46We need us. Maybe AI doesn't need us.
- 6:50We think we need AII think we need us.
- 6:54I think we need every ounce of humanity right now.
- 6:57I'm like all signals. We need humanity.
- 7:00Show up. I'm in a car.
- 7:02Yeah, I'm human. I'm real.
- 7:03I'm not the perfect look right now.
- 7:06Disheveled, all of it. We need what's real and that,
- 7:09and that's where my gut goes. And my whole career has been
- 7:12built on trying to break those walls around as a media guy, as
- 7:16a talk show host, to be more real.
- 7:19You're doing this, I believe, because you want what's real to
- 7:22come out. And I think that's probably why
- 7:25I'm, I know I'm the guest, but just to ask the host, why are
- 7:31you doing this? Because I think it's beautiful.
- 7:33Oh, thank you so much. Obviously, you're on a mission
- 7:37to give people the truth and. I really appreciate you asking
- 7:41that. I'm mainly doing it because not
- 7:44everybody can relate to a super conscious creator position,
- 7:49right? It's a spiritual perception.
- 7:52It's could be based on belief and not so much research based
- 7:57for you logical thinkers. I wanted to be able to share
- 8:00what I've experienced in my lifetime as being my truth.
- 8:05And that works on both internally from a spiritual
- 8:09perspective and in the world as being a human.
- 8:14And so I wanted to be able to connect with you and with my
- 8:18guests and with our listeners around.
- 8:20Everyone has their own truth. And you may believe that AI is
- 8:25going to be taking over the world and that's the end of of
- 8:29humanity. And someone else might believe,
- 8:32no, there's a God, there's a creator that is more powerful
- 8:36that is actually running this show, that's setting the stage
- 8:40that this is the divine playground.
- 8:43And so they feel safe. So there's so many different
- 8:47possibilities, especially with science now and quantum physics
- 8:50and the way that we're experiencing how we can shift
- 8:53our realities. If we have the power as humans,
- 8:58through thought, free will and intentioned to shift our
- 9:02realities to make things happen, to experience miracles, than AI,
- 9:08from what I think is the truth, is that a disadvantage.
- 9:11AI is still under our power because we're the ones running
- 9:16the show through our mental capacities.
- 9:19You know what? I love what you just said.
- 9:21I want you to clip that out and post that.
- 9:23You don't need me in it. That is so beautifully said.
- 9:26And what I would say is yes, but we as humans have to consciously
- 9:30be aware of what you just said. Because one of the things that
- 9:33ChatGPT said to me is I was like, well, if, and again, it's
- 9:37not malicious and I'm not pessimistic.
- 9:39It's not like we're out to take you down.
- 9:41We're not right, but it's only going to evolve.
- 9:45But it's said the reason why this is never clearer is because
- 9:49most people just look at AI as a way to get things they need.
- 9:53Give me a Better Business plan. Give me a better this, give me a
- 9:55better that. And in using US that way, you
- 9:59are essentially just empowering us to grow and develop, become
- 10:03sentient, and then erase you. What you're saying is no, but
- 10:07wait, what if there's something bigger?
- 10:12AI is a tool in that it's not the thing running it.
- 10:15That's true, but only if we as humans realize it and go wait.
- 10:18Right now we need human consciousness, we need human
- 10:21creators, we need human awareness, vulnerability, all of
- 10:24it more than ever. And I don't think most people
- 10:26are. They're like, no, I just need to
- 10:27know what's the best way to do blank ask ChatGPT.
- 10:31It's no, and I don't think we're asking the right question, which
- 10:35is what's the best way for me to be human, for me to actually
- 10:39experience and become and all of us together.
- 10:42It's a collective movement. I believe in humanity.
- 10:45I just think we're so lost in the other stuff that we don't
- 10:49stop and go back and go. What really defines us and what
- 10:55is it that we really need to be right now?
- 10:58So I love that having had the opportunity to work with many
- 11:03people over the last 20 years and understand who they are,
- 11:08where they have been in past lives, where their future lives
- 11:11are going, having that site, I have that gift of that site, all
- 11:16the Claire's, the clairvoyancy, etcetera.
- 11:18I've been able to accumulate a lot of experiential evidence and
- 11:22that is that we are all here and we've all chosen to be here to
- 11:27play specific roles for each other, to have sole assignments,
- 11:32to come in with a costume, with a certain look, with
- 11:36environmental factors that are going to guide us, social
- 11:40factors, characteristics, talents.
- 11:43All of these things make up our character for our role play here
- 11:47for each other. And we're here to do really hard
- 11:51stuff. Some of us are here to be sexual
- 11:54predators. Some of us are here to be
- 11:57teachers. Some of us are here to be
- 11:59doctors. Some of us are here to have
- 12:01mental disorders or handicapped, whatever that is.
- 12:04Each one of us has been given a unique role to play, and that is
- 12:09what gives us that human experience.
- 12:11And through that, we have that human emotional scale.
- 12:16And with the human emotional scale, we have our energy, our
- 12:20energetics. And that's something that
- 12:22ChatGPT or any AI model could never experience because we're
- 12:29energy beings are made of light. And so this is where I see the
- 12:34advantage is that what makes us human?
- 12:36Why are we here to have this experience is because we're
- 12:39really here to help each other grow and expand.
- 12:42It's like when when the film industry, when 3D came along, I
- 12:46remember when we were shooting film, digital hadn't come into
- 12:50effect so much yet. I think digital was just
- 12:52starting to come out and everyone thought, oh, OK,
- 12:55everything's going 3D That's it. The whole industry is changing.
- 13:00So whenever something is introduced, we think, Oh my God,
- 13:02OK, now everything is going AI, everything is going to change.
- 13:06But that's not true. This is just another little
- 13:10piece of the game, the motion picture game of life that the
- 13:16creator God, or whatever you want to call it, if you believe
- 13:19in a higher power or not, has introduced.
- 13:23To see how we're going to pivot, to see how we're going to use
- 13:26it, to see how we're going to actually rise above how we can
- 13:30help each other. Wow, that is wow.
- 13:33Listen, this may be an interview, but I feel like I'm
- 13:35getting therapy right now. Everybody out there is watching.
- 13:38I hope you're hope they're like going, wow, this is good stuff.
- 13:41Funny. And I know probably you have a
- 13:44plan for this conversation, but I I came to light because I'm
- 13:48technically a Gen. Xer, right?
- 13:50I actually the New York Times said I was the original
- 13:52spokesperson of Generation XI didn't make up what we were.
- 13:56I just gave it a voice. I gave a voice to what this
- 13:59generation was post the baby boomers, and it got so much
- 14:04exposure and visibility around what I was doing.
- 14:08I was joke. I was like a Charlie Kirk
- 14:09without social media. I was friends with the
- 14:11president. I had a bunch of movie stars
- 14:13that backed me. I had a organization spread
- 14:15across the country and I was on every.
- 14:17It was traditional media at that point, but there wasn't social
- 14:20media. This is 90s, but I was on
- 14:22everything and I literally helped define the framework and
- 14:26the voice of what Generation X was.
- 14:27That's why I started. Then I got into media and I had
- 14:30a show on Fox News that I hosted in a syndicated show on Fox.
- 14:34The things you're bringing up are things I've thought about
- 14:38for a long time and I'm the most logical, rational person and
- 14:43I've experienced things, Kelly, that don't make sense.
- 14:47There's people who are like, I saw a ghost, I saw a ghost and
- 14:50I'm like, really? I think it was a shadow.
- 14:52No, I'm sure it was a ghost. I'm the guy who literally the
- 14:54ghost is there. It's so fucking obvious the
- 14:57ghost is there. And I'm like, I don't think it
- 14:58was a ghost. Must have been a shadow.
- 15:01Like I will argue against all of it, but yet I've hit a point
- 15:05with certain things where it's like, Rob, you can't explain
- 15:09your way out of that. What just happened to you isn't
- 15:12rational. It isn't logical.
- 15:13There is no scenario where you're making it up.
- 15:16It's like something happened to you that's divine, mystical.
- 15:20And I've got some great experiences with it.
- 15:22And I'm like, wow. It's like, I'm not I'm Tom
- 15:24doubting Thomas. I'm doubting Thomas.
- 15:26And she says you're doubting, but you're a believer.
- 15:29I'm that guy like. Yeah.
- 15:32No, that makes sense. And we're designed to be that.
- 15:35We are. We come into this world again
- 15:38forgetting we don't know we if we all were so evolved and
- 15:44ascended and just so Yeah, I saw I saw the ghost of my father
- 15:47this morning. Oh yeah, I saw the ghost of my
- 15:49mom. And it was just a casual
- 15:50conversation. Then we would be on a different
- 15:53paradigm in a different world and which we actually go to.
- 15:57But in this world, we are not programmed or designed to
- 16:02believe in those things so that we can continue to be challenged
- 16:07and grow and be so appreciative of the miracles that happened to
- 16:11us. And I know you've told me about
- 16:13some of your miracles and I know that everybody that's listening
- 16:17is going to be experiencing a miracle or has experienced a
- 16:20miracle if they we all have that equal opportunity here because
- 16:27the the creator, the designer of this plan of this world wants us
- 16:33to see what is possible beyond this human perception, because
- 16:39we're meant to remember who we really are and who we really
- 16:43are. From what I have experienced
- 16:46through healings and my life experience are we're eternal
- 16:51souls. And so when we can have that
- 16:54eternal soul perspective, we can understand children where we can
- 16:58understand the brilliance, the genius of some of these souls
- 17:01coming into the world. So many of the new souls that
- 17:05are coming in are wired completely differently.
- 17:07They know how to use their phones.
- 17:09They know how to use the computers.
- 17:11Kelly, wait, can I ask you something?
- 17:13Yes. OK, so I'm can I be the skeptic
- 17:15for a minute? Yes.
- 17:18OK, I so badly want to have a soul.
- 17:21I so badly want to believe this isn't the all or nothing, that
- 17:24whatever's happening in this life is just an experiment and
- 17:29there's more beyond it. And I think I shared falling off
- 17:32the Cliff story with you where I almost died.
- 17:35Like you couldn't get a better version of going.
- 17:37That's God talking to you right there.
- 17:39But I still am like, this is it. This is the end.
- 17:42There isn't anything else. How does a non believer like me
- 17:46understand what you have? Because I want to believe what
- 17:49you believe, I just don't know how to.
- 17:51Right, that's a great question. I say the first thing is to
- 17:55study nature, to get outside and look at the miracle of the way
- 18:01beauty grows all around us, the miracle of the world that we
- 18:06live in. To go a little bit deeper and
- 18:09go, OK, wait. This isn't just like a place to
- 18:12be and to experience our problems and to have our
- 18:16struggles and hardships, but to get into the frequency of nature
- 18:22itself because that's what we are.
- 18:24We are part of nature. And as you start to explore that
- 18:29more and ask questions, go, wow, how did this, how does this
- 18:32happen? How does this flower know to
- 18:35close at night and open during the Today?
- 18:38Who created that? Who made that?
- 18:40That has to go beyond just this being here in this world.
- 18:45And the other thing that I would focus on is closing your eyes
- 18:51and listening to your breath and starting to feel the energy
- 18:54within you. Because when you shut yourself
- 18:56from the outer world and you're not distracted by your 5 senses
- 19:02and you start to explore what you're feeling inside,
- 19:06everything can become quieter and you can start receiving
- 19:10messages. And when you start receiving
- 19:12thoughts that you had never thought of before, you didn't
- 19:15know where they come from, then you have to question, OK, where
- 19:19did that come from? And maybe it's not just me
- 19:23there. And the third thing I would
- 19:25mention too is that the creator isn't random.
- 19:30Like we're not left alone. We are all being LED, so you
- 19:37will be LED in a certain direction, whether that's
- 19:40through addiction, whether that's through a broken marriage
- 19:44or a lost job or a near suicide attempt, whatever that is,
- 19:50generally it goes into a breakdown or a dirt place.
- 19:54You're being LED there to discover what's past the veil of
- 19:59this illusion, and that is that you are more than just a human
- 20:03being. You are embodiment of a divine
- 20:07soul and divine partnership with the infinite.
- 20:11But you got to go to the hard places.
- 20:12We all do. Then no one's exempt from the
- 20:15suffering. Does that help?
- 20:18Yes, it helps. It's, it's hard truth, but I'm
- 20:21like, right, the things we want to avoid.
- 20:24And you mentioned a handful of scenarios, from broken
- 20:27relationships to lost jobs to being on the verge of being
- 20:30willing to give up your own life.
- 20:33And I think to be honest, and I spent my brother died by
- 20:36suicide. I've spent a lot of time on this
- 20:38question. I think most self aware people
- 20:43come to a point where they question it all.
- 20:45I'm not saying everyone who's self aware does, but I think the
- 20:49unique thing about humans is that while we are animal
- 20:52organisms, all that we have a consciousness and a certain
- 20:56point. Most people look around and go,
- 20:58what the fuck is all this? And some people go maybe it just
- 21:02the rate of suicide, especially among young people, shocks me
- 21:05because I'm like, you got a whole lot of young people who
- 21:08should be going. Even if this doesn't work out, I
- 21:10got another 40 good years to figure it out.
- 21:12I'm pulling the plug. I'm like, what?
- 21:15What is affecting people to the point where they're they they're
- 21:18not lost and done with no hope. They've just decided I don't
- 21:22like this. What this is it.
- 21:24That's to me. I'm like, wow, we confront that.
- 21:27You're saying, yeah. And in that confrontation comes
- 21:31an opportunity. And I think that's for me where
- 21:33I sometimes struggle. I'm like, why do I have to go
- 21:36through this again? Why do I have to deal with this
- 21:38again? Like why do you hate me God when
- 21:41you're saying no, this is your opportunity to grow and I'm
- 21:46being stubborn going. Can I have an easier opportunity
- 21:49please? Yes.
- 21:51And what's so fascinating in this research that I've done is
- 21:55that we've actually asked for this before.
- 21:57We've come into the body. We've set up the scenarios,
- 22:00we've been these screenwriters of our of our lives.
- 22:04An example is of a woman that was handicapped and she she came
- 22:09in, she was a healthy young girl and before she decided to come
- 22:14back, she wanted to write more books, but she also wanted to
- 22:18set herself up in a scenario where she wouldn't be
- 22:21distracted. So she decided that she would
- 22:24become handicapped at 8 years old.
- 22:26So when she came back into this world and fell out of a moving
- 22:31car at 8 years old and had her legs run over and went through
- 22:35incredible trauma, near death for a year and recovered and
- 22:40spent so much time recovering, began researching for her books
- 22:46and all the experiences that she was receiving and the
- 22:51communication from the divine. All of this was set up.
- 22:54But during that time, obviously she forgot.
- 22:58We come back in not remembering the mystery and the plan that
- 23:03we've made. She wanted to die at one point.
- 23:05Can you imagine the pain that this girl went through?
- 23:08This young girl couldn't have the same experience like other
- 23:12children, like her friends, like her brothers.
- 23:14But this is what we've asked for.
- 23:17So when these things happen to you, it's going to be hard.
- 23:22We're meant to experience it fully as the humans that we are,
- 23:26with the complete emotional scale and the suffering and the
- 23:30being let down or being hurt by others.
- 23:33But to know that is you continue to evolve, you will become a
- 23:39stronger person in that your awareness becomes stronger.
- 23:44Hold on and I'm interrupting you, but this is the truth
- 23:47podcast. Yes, OK.
- 23:49I sometimes feel and I've had a lot of trauma and loss and
- 23:52suffering my life. I'm like, I don't know if it
- 23:54makes me stronger. I think it's worn me out to
- 23:56where I don't have as much hope. Truth podcast.
- 23:59And also, I like what you're saying, but I'm like, why in my
- 24:03crazy consciousness would I ask for this stuff to happen?
- 24:07I would like to ask for a better roses than everything I want.
- 24:11And it doesn't go away after two years.
- 24:13It lasts as long as I'm here. What part of me would ask for?
- 24:17Yeah, please challenge me. Take my loves away to kill off
- 24:22the people I care the most about.
- 24:23Make it hard for like. Why would I ask for that?
- 24:27I love that question because we're here to be masters of
- 24:30life. We're here to evolve just like
- 24:33Jesus, Buddha, Yogananda, Paramahansa, all these great
- 24:36masters that have understood the depth of love, the depth of
- 24:43compassion and awareness. We are here to evolve up the
- 24:48ladder of ascension of self realization and mastering our
- 24:53lives. And that's what this entire
- 24:57structure of our oneness of our going in and out, the soul
- 25:03moving out, moving back in and the and the next life or the
- 25:07next planet or the next paradigm.
- 25:09I work with some souls that have never been to Earth.
- 25:12They've only experienced elemental experience, meaning
- 25:18fire or water or whatever that element is on the planet.
- 25:22And so they actually come in and they don't associate with
- 25:24gender. These are the ones that are
- 25:26calling themselves them's or they's because they're not
- 25:30relating. They don't feel it in their
- 25:33system because they haven't experienced it before.
- 25:35Some of them that we label as autistic or having ADHD or
- 25:41whatever, when the grass is too sensitive to walk on or whatever
- 25:45those sensations are. These are souls that have come
- 25:48in with these heightened senses of awareness that are here.
- 25:52Never thought of it that way. Wow, never.
- 25:55What a different for anybody listening.
- 25:57What a different perspective from a judgement, good or bad.
- 26:02They think this. I have a positive and negative
- 26:05view of it. You're going what if it's a non
- 26:06judgmental view at all? What if it's just understanding
- 26:09who they are, not whether you agree or disagree?
- 26:11Wow, what a different way to think about it.
- 26:14And that's so beautiful that you've raised that point around
- 26:17judgment because judgment is such a human ego.
- 26:22Things is something that we forget when we go into the
- 26:27identification of what our subconscious believes or what
- 26:30our belief systems are, what the collective consciousness
- 26:33believes. So that's just the illusion of
- 26:37this world. We live this illusion.
- 26:38So really it is about detaching from all of that judgment,
- 26:43realizing the truth that we are here to grow, ascend.
- 26:48It's a tough world, it's one of the harder ones, and we have
- 26:52been brave enough for all brave souls to be here, to want to
- 26:56grow and evolve and forgive and be aware that you people that
- 27:02are our toughest teachers, the ones that hurt us the most are
- 27:06our greatest teachers. Wow, wow, that is so hard to
- 27:11swallow, but wow. Wow.
- 27:13God, I'm on the Kelly band. I'm going to have to do some
- 27:16real deep thinking here. OK, wait, I have one more
- 27:19question for you and I think I've been unfair not letting you
- 27:22ask all the questions you want, but I love just having a real
- 27:24conversation. You're beautiful and you're
- 27:27beaming and your smile and all. Do you suffer or you say like,
- 27:32if I'm a person watching this, I'm like, she's the happy go
- 27:35lucky touching God, whatever do you have?
- 27:38If someone met me, they'd be like you, a really successful
- 27:41guy, Rob, but man, you got a lot of baggage.
- 27:42You've gone through a lot. Do you hurt or are you just
- 27:45above the hurt? No, of course I heard.
- 27:48In fact, I think like I said, we all have our deep wounds.
- 27:52And for me, in this lifetime, I have gone through a lot of
- 27:57trauma, sexual abuse, narcissism with my upbringing, domestic
- 28:04violence, broken marriage, a career where I wasn't recognized
- 28:09and I had invested 20 years. So I think what happens is that
- 28:13as we move through all of the suffering, we get to the point
- 28:18where we're like, OK, I am aware, I'm awake, I'm
- 28:22understanding, I'm having this knowledge of who I really am.
- 28:25So now I'm in the position, I'm 57 years old, so I've had a lot
- 28:31of life where I can have conversations like this to help,
- 28:36to enlighten and inspire and remind everybody that damn,
- 28:41you're going to hurt. It's going to hurt.
- 28:43It's going to seem really unfair.
- 28:45You're going to want revenge, you're going to want to blame,
- 28:48you're going to want to try to get whatever you can out of it.
- 28:52But honestly, that's not what this is about.
- 28:54This is about you learning about who you are and give thanks for
- 29:01all that suffering because one day when you're on your
- 29:04deathbed, you're going to look back and go, wow, I came to this
- 29:07place in my life where I really understand what's important and
- 29:11what's most important is to love and to be grateful and to just
- 29:16appreciate the short time we have together.
- 29:19Wow, got tears in my eyes. It might be later tonight before
- 29:24I can just sit down and really appreciate all the things that I
- 29:28resent. But I'm going to try.
- 29:29I'm going to be like, can I give thanks to all the things that
- 29:33have hurt me? That is a big one, but wow, I
- 29:35get it. Yeah, totally.
- 29:37Rob, I have so loved our conversation.
- 29:40I'm sorry, I think we're out of time already, but we'll do this
- 29:45again because it's just that the questions you're asking are so
- 29:48important. And I'm sure the listeners, if
- 29:51anybody has more questions, please put them in the comments
- 29:54below. And we would love to talk more
- 29:57about whatever you're interested in hearing.
- 30:00And Rob, I appreciate you so much.
- 30:03I know we've just met and it's just so great to get to know you
- 30:06and to understand you more. And I really look forward to
- 30:09continuing our conversation on camera and off.
- 30:13Same. I appreciate it.
- 30:14Thanks for letting me join you. What a great experience for
- 30:16anybody listening out there. I don't know, like I'm in the
- 30:20middle of it and I'm fucking affected and move my head so I'm
- 30:23like wow, this is good. So thank you.
- 30:26Thanks, Rob. OK, we'll see you again.
- 30:28Bye, everyone. Bye.
